The First Pets: Why Cats Actually Chose Us | Before Cities

Описание: The First Pets: Why Cats Actually Chose Us | Before Cities

Unlike dogs, cats weren’t tamed by force or bred for survival. Instead, they chose us. Thousands of years ago, wildcats began living near human settlements — not out of loyalty, but opportunity. Over time, this unlikely relationship evolved into one of the most fascinating partnerships in human history.

In this documentary, we explore the origin of cats and how they became one of the first pets:

Why wildcats in prehistory were drawn to human camps
How early humans benefited from their stealth and hunting skills
The slow and subtle process of cat domestication
Why cats remained independent, even as they became part of ancient life

From the Stone Age to modern homes, this is the story of why cats actually chose humans — and how it shaped the history of pets.
